HIPS filament 1.75mm 1kg - FDM 3D printing filament AzureFilm

HIPS filament from AzureFilm (High Impact Polystyrene) is a soluble filament that is often used as a backing material.
In fact, it can be easily removed with a Limonene solution, leaving high quality, clean prints.

HIPS, a copolymer that combines the strength of polystyrene and the elasticity of rubber, is usually used in protective packaging and flexible containers. In the 3D printing world, HIPS plays a different role than the usual filaments such as PLA, PETG, ASA filaments, etc. In fact, its main function is support.
You can combine HIPS with another filament in a dual extrusion printer and get great results. The best way to use HIPS is alongside ABS. In fact, it has a similar level of strength and stiffness, plus it has similar printing temperatures.
The limonene with which HIPS dissolves damages other 3D printer filaments, which is why the ABS-HIPS combination is best.

What are the main aspects of HIPS 3D printing filament Azurefilm?

The HIPS filament from Azurefilm is characterized by several aspects:

• It is a strong and durable filament
• It can be used as a support material soluble in limonene
• Leaves no residue after dissolution
• Ideal for dual- 3D printers.Drive

Note: Because HIPS tends to shrink, you should only print the material in a 3D printer with a closed chamber.
